Abstract: Experimental results are given for load capacity and whirl onset in journal bearings of circular, elliptical and offset halves bore shape. The general validity of the linearized model for ...

Abstract: A study of the mechanics of ice friction was performed in which various theoretical models were compared to experimental results. Analytical models indicate that ice friction is affected by ...

Abstract: The experiments of Mr. Beauchamp Tower and their subsequent interpretation by Professor Osborne Reynolds form the basis of all hydrodynamic lubrication theory. In the experiments described in his ...
